Lock Him Up! Feminists Call To Put Milo Yiannopoulos Behind Bars

Breitbart Tech editor Milo Yiannopoulos might consider himself social justice-proof, but even he must have been unsettled yesterday when two feminists called for him to be incarcerated for his tweets on live television.

Smurthwaite and Yiannopoulos had previously locked horns on the show last year, as her “institutionalised sexism” outburst was the source for the unforgettable “I’m talking about men, darling” viral video. For her disappointing performance, Smurthwaite received ridicule and criticism that she later sought to depict as “abuse” and “harassment.”

This is not the first time feminists have called for Yiannopoulos and other free speech activists and writers critical of modern feminism to face criminal charges.

After his invitation to debate gender politics at Bristol University, the University’s LGBT+ Officer Charlie Oxborough defended prosecuting Milo on the basis that his “transphobic hate speech is not within the confines of the law.”

The progressive Left’s censorious instincts started with banning wrongthinkers from campus but is now escalating, with calls to effectively criminalise freedom of expression.

In fact when social justice warrior Bahar Mustafa, Goldsmiths University Student Diversity Officer, was arrested on the grounds of “sending a threatening communication” after she used the #KillAllWhiteMen hashtag, it was Yiannopoulos who was the first to speak out against her arrest.

As Yiannopoulos said at the time: “I mean, it’s only a matter of time before such a state would come for me, isn’t it?”
